Out of Town thread. Part XX

[Miller Time]

I saw a quote from Babcock saying something to the effect that it’s a privilege to play/work for the Leafs, and that Marner is being greedy.

Unimpeded by a CBA, he gladly backed up the money truck and bent the Leafs over. And now he throws shade at Marner.

1- he's being a hypocrite

2- he does have a point that Marner is being "greedy", if the term is referring to a person who is prioritizing money over the other aspects of sporting success (ie taking less money to facilitate more money for his team to retain overall roster talent).... But, the league is first and foremost a money making capitalist venture, not a sport one, so really he's just stating the obvious which the vast majority of people involved, from ownership on down, are "guilty" of (IF there's anything wrong with greed)

He, like many, is probably just letting the marketing stories cloud his perception of things...

Funny, reading reports, today shea webber is worth more then PK subban . How the times change

Will be interesting to see what that story looks like this time next year.

If healthy, I'd bet on PK being a Norris finalist again, if not winning his 2nd. All this piling on him after one, injury-riddled, season is likely going to fire up a guy whose already incredibly competitive & highly motivated

How we feeling about these Subban to Leafs Rumour's ? lol

 

[EXPOS123]

I will laugh (and cry) so hard if the Preds get a better return for Subban than we did.

I wonder what the conditional 1st is about? Leafs needed to get rid of that contract, but if it costs a 2020 1st that's a big ouch.

probably top 10 lottery protected

A Free 1st pick for 1 year...

Does this make PK to the Leafs more likely?

They had no choice tho. Resigning Marner is more important than a late 1st round pick. Good move.

Indeed but a first is a first tho

Crazy that in hindsight we might be all very wrongs starting with me, and MB right.

A Marner is also a Marner

Better than Weber?
Man just stop

I’m pumped, now I could laugh at Leafs and Subban at the same time

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

A Marner is also a Marner

If they ever pay marner 11m~

Its a bad sign anyways

 

[DXStriker]

LeBrun saying Subban may have been traded

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

 

[David Suzuki]

PK traded.

 

[tazsub3]

Though would bow to MB if they dont get much of anything and preds retain 3 million as rumored??

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

 

[DXStriker]

Friedman saying its not TOR

 

[Captain Mountain]

 

[CH25]

Wow Subban trade again ?

 

[Zorba]
